you know, one of the things you talked about, the grand strategy of our foreign policy. one of the things that has made this country great and made our foreign policy strong for such a long time has been the willingness of parties to work together, to put aside our partisan differences when it comes to these international issues and to act together when the security and the interests of the united states are threatened. and that's what we need to do now. we need to work together to address the situation that led up to benghazi, make sure it doesn't happen again, and go forward together in a way that the american people want. >> senator jean shaheen, thank you very much. >> thank you. >> from new hampshire. >>> and still ahead, new jersey congressman chris smith previewing this afternoon's house hearing. secretary clinton will be fielding more tough questions at 2:00. >>> next, whom can we rely on to protect american diplomats in an increasingly volatile africa? this is "andrea mitchell reports" only on msnbc.
